Plenty of shows going on again this weekend. Next Floor, going on at the Han River, near Sangam in western Seoul, is obviously the biggest gig -- 30,000 won for a whole bunch of live acts and DJs (poster here, schedule here).
There is also an interesting looking show at Yardbirds ...

Actually, I have no idea about this weekend. There is no one, overwhelmingly cool show. But there are several very good looking shows, any of which should be worth checking out.
Tonight (Friday) we have Windy City, along with Kingston Rudieska and friends, playing at Sangsang Madang. Definitely a solid and ...

A heck of a lot of shows going on this weekend, especially on Saturday night. I have already talked about the shoegazer show going on at Bowie, but here a couple more that should be worth going to.

Interesting looking show coming up on Saturday (May 24) at club Bowie featuring three shoegazing bands — Lobotomy, Bulssazo and Bulgilhan Joeum. The show is the eighth Never Right show... although I must admit I have no idea what the Never Right thing is all about.
